Cornish harbours usually have a large sea wall (as shown) as the open sea is
often rough and so this gives shelter.  Many beaches are also surfing
beaches so the breaking waves carry on for quite a distance out to open
water. Also that size of boat rarely has an anchor! You can see how shallow
the sand slope is so the water comes in gradually and lifts the boats
evenly, they are used for crabbing or pulling in static nets.

Nathan,

Great set.  Particularly like the harbor at low tide shots.  Interesting
that they do not take the ships out, so as to not have them beached.

Cheers,
Gene

My first ever visit to this beautiful part of England, but certainly not the
last!

Cheers,
Nathan
